Abstract Reinforced polymer composites are a recent type of advanced shielding material that has been studied experimentally and theoretically. This work described the protection properties of silicon rubber filled with nano and micro tin oxide (II). These shielding materials are evaluated by parameters such as mass attenuation coefficient, linear attenuation coefficient, mean free path, effective atomic number, and buildup factor. The morphology and mechanical properties of silicon rubber, which is reinforced with tin oxide (II) particles in terms of weight fraction and size, have been studied. The results explain that the mass attenuation coefficient increases as tin oxide (II) concentration increases at a particular photon energy. It was found that the shielding properties of nano tin oxide (II) composites are more effective than micro tin oxide (II) composites against gamma rays. The effective atomic number values increase by increasing tin oxide (II) and so on equivalent atomic number. On the other hand, increasing tin oxide (II) weight fraction led to an increase in buildup factor maximum, which proved that tin oxide (II) concentration has significant effectiveness in radiation protection. |
